Hollywood Heights

Chapter 34

Eddie: Lo, that is amazing!

Loren: Really?

Eddie: Of course it is, is this why you have been so distant lately? Because you were afraid to tell me How long have you known for? Wait let me guess, you found out at the engagement party.

Loren: I did, Eddie, i'm so scared, i'm still so young what am i going to do with not only one, but two babies?

Eddie: Loren, you won't be alone in this, i am here for you, our parents will help and Melissa will make an amazing aunt. Lo, i know you are scared and i understand  that but Lo, look at me, you will make the most amazing mom to these children.

Loren: You really think so?

Eddie: No, Loren, i know so.

Loren: You are just saying that to make me feel better, you don't really mean it.

Eddie: Loren, of course i mean it, I wanted to marry you because i love you and want to spend the rest of my life with you but there was also a part of me that wanted you to be the mother of my children. To be honest i didn't expect that we would have children so soon, but Loren now that it is happening i couldn't possibly be any happier.

Loren: So why do i feel as if my life is over?

Eddie: Loren because the life you know now is over, but that doesn't mean it is actually over. Lo i will stand by you with whatever you decide to do with this pregnancy but i promise you that i will be there for you the entire way. I will do whatever i can to help you get through this and if you let me we will get through this together.

Loren: Eddie, as hard as this is for me i want to have the babies.

Eddie: Lo, i was hoping you would say that.

Loren: You were?

Eddie: Of course, i always wanted to be a dad, and now thanks to you i will get to be a dad to not only one child but two.

Loren: I was so afraid you would be so mad at me.

Eddie: Lo, why would you think that? We are engaged remember?

Loren: Yeah i know but for some reason i felt that as soon as you would find out i was pregnant you would leave. Part of me knew i was being irrational but the other part, the part that has a hard time forgetting that my dad left me was afraid that you would do the same to my children.

Eddie: Loren, you should know i am nothing like you're dad, i would never leave my own child no matter how hard life might be, but most important i would never ever leave you. I love you more than anything in the world.

Loren: I know that, but i was still afraid. I still am.

Eddie: I know Lo, but it will okay i promise.

Eddie brings Loren into a hug and kisses her. After about ten minutes they are just enjoying each other's company when there is a knock on the door and Melissa walks in.

Melissa: Lo, did you tell him?

Eddie: She sure did.

Melissa: And since you are still here i'm assuming you didn't leave her after you found out.

Eddie: Mel, of course i didn't i'm really excited about this, the babies make me want to marry her even more than i wanted to before.

Melissa: See Lo, i told you Eddie wouldn't leave you. 

The next couple of months went by in a blur for everyone. Baby stuff were bought by everyone and wedding preparations were well under way. The only people who weren't super excited about the wedding and babies were Jake and Kelly. Jake was frustrated with Eddie, because Eddie was so focused on making sure this wedding was perfect. Eddie was constantly ditching Jake for working on the wedding. Loren on the other hand was overly focused on her work to the point that it was worrying even Kelly. No matter who spoke or what they said Loren was trying to ignore the fact that she was pregnant. Loren had not wanted to find out the sex of the babies until they were born and Eddie was on bored with that plan.
